Hughes eyes Fulham target Queens Park Rangers, 06:17, January 30, 2012 QPR are set to battle it out with Fulham for the services of Borussia Dortmund striker Lucas Barrios. The Paraguay international, who was born in Argentina, has impressed in the Bundesliga when chipping in with 35 goals in 75 appearances and both Mark Hughes and Martin Jol are keen. Fulham are believed to be further down the line in their attempts to sign the 27-year-old, but the R's can offer more cash and could hijack the deal before Tuesday's deadline. Liverpool have also been linked with the player but he looks to be heading to London. http://www.clubcall.com/queens-park-rangers/hughes-eyes-fulham-target-1374679.html?
Here's another long shot, was top ten among the strikers in Europe last season when Dortmund secured their first title in years. Been out of the side after he came back from a six month injury, the best striker (Tevez part) we've been linked with imo. A more natural finisher you'll struggle to find. No nonsense, no fancy ****, just gets it on target on a regular basis and scores goals [video=youtube;U3byKcI42Nk]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3byKcI42Nk[/video]
A striker that scores goals! Now that would be nice! Good movement into space and nice finishes. Too good to be true!!
My pleasure Staines, enjoyed your banana story earlier Don't need my striker to score goal of the week, I'll gladly settle for simple tap ins. Think Barrios is in the Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Javier "Chicharito" Hernandes mold, always hitting the target, which can't be a bad thing.
